Reconstruction:Proto-Slavic/orvьnъ
Proto-Slavic
Etymology
From Proto-Balto-Slavic *arwis. Morphologically from *orvò + *-ьnъ. According to Pokorny (supported by Snoj), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *rewh₁- (“open space, field”), see also English room, Middle Irish róe.[1][2]
Cognates include Old Prussian arwis (“true, definite”), Lithuanian arvis (“suitable”) (or arvas, then displaced by tinka).
Adjective
*õrvьnъ[1]
